The Seven Try Baby Hat

I was determined to make a baby hat for little Asher who is due to arrive in February of next year. My grandson must have a toasty hat! So I began looking for a pattern. Friend Heather (see post below) shared a great and simple pattern with me and I started knitting it.

And started again.

And again.

No, really. Again.

The seventh time was the charm. AND I started it and finished in the same day!

I have to read directions completely, visualize the steps and THEN do the work. Maybe that is my problem with cooking… I was determined and kept on.

This is yours truly, with the 4th or 5th attempt:“Fini!” As they say somewhere not in South Georgia…. “Ooo La La!” As they say somewhere in France. “Gee whiz, Wally!” As Beaver used to say on Leave it to Beaver, I really did it!

It even has a tassel. Oh yeah. So of course, I’m making another hat from a harder pattern. I’m on the first attempt and it is going well, I think. The directions actually say that it might look strange at first but not to give up… now that is a set of directions I can live with!
